Finally, we found the person in charge of naming all those Animes. I like the time you've spent in the UI. You've genuinely added depth to what on the surface looks like a very simple game. I would have tried to spend a bit more time on the art, but time is a luxury in game jams. Well done!

Interesting concept, though you will probably get softlocked if you dont realize you need to read the journal to find out you can get a job. The quest line is also kinda jarring. Otherwise, i want to see more from this.
